Represents	Undiscovered Scotland (Q113699295)
Data type	External identifier
Domain	mostly geographic location (Q2221906), but there are also some biographies, a few regular events, and even a handful of recipes, so perhaps best left general. There are also some general history and practical orientation articles, some of which we may be able to match.

Planned use	Strategy probably first to go through the A-Z index and match all `place/place` entries there as settlements; then go through the categories, matching with the assistance of the geographic location and feature-type, then finally look through the scotfax section to see which pages there are where we may have an exact existing match already specific to Scotland.

Motivation

Undiscovered Scotland (Q113699295) is a site with extensive descriptions of places of interest (settlements, museums, historic sites, etc) in Scotland. I believe it would be a useful resource for Wikidata (and Commons categories) to systematically index and link to, in particular for its content on smaller and often less well-known places and museums. We should already have existing items for almost all entries; any that we do not have items for, we probably should have. -- Jheald (talk) 10:49, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
